Yu-jin found himself in a life-or-death crisis.
The reason was absurd. His beloved wife had body-slammed him while wearing a swimsuit.
Thanks to that, his situation had become utterly exposed.
His vision was spinning.
*“Of all people, it had to be Alice…!!”*
If it were Sia, she might forgive him, thinking, *“It’s just because I’m so charming.”*
And his master would likely apologize instead, saying, *“Sorry for being so turned on…”*
But of all people, it was Alice.
The most innocent of the three, completely unaware of anything lewd.
But her preferences during intimate moments were a bit—no, a lot—kinky…
At least at this moment, she was a naive girl who knew nothing.
Yet, she had found out about this?
A slap in the face was a given. He’d even get reported to the police.
*“If this continues, I’ll be forced to enlist with Winterer…!!”*
- *Whimpering.*
Cold sweat began to soak his clothes.
While Yu-jin hadn’t spilled much, most of it was on Alice. Nevertheless, he was in a state of panic, facing a dire situation.
And then there was Alice…
*“This looks completely different from what I saw in ‘Eyes’! Plus, it’s so thick… It’s like 2 inches!!”*
Contrary to Yu-jin's expectations, she wasn’t disgusted at all.
If anything, she was intrigued.
Oh my. Is this the thing you only read about in books? To do those things with it…!!
Her mind was spinning with such delusions.
Thanks to that, thoughts of methods to suppress it, like *“tag: bondage,”* had completely vanished from Alice’s mind.
*“That’s on my lower belly….”*
- *Gulp.*
In fact, her instincts welcomed the situation.
Ah, so this is what practice is about. How fascinating. Let’s keep this going.
Her body was reacting, holding on tightly.
Their upper bodies were pressed together without any gaps.
The outlines of each other were blatantly felt. *Smack.*
*“W-What is this…?”*
*“Alice, that’s, um…”*
Yu-jin’s rationality was growing more chaotic.
He needed to find a solution right away…
Wow. Look at the elasticity of her chest.
He truly wanted to just jump in and become the *“Breeding Uncle.”*
His excitement was only rising, not cooling down at all.
In response to her innocent reaction, Alice…
- *Thump-thump.*
*“W-What should I do? I hugged him tightly without realizing it… At this rate, I’ll be the wanton woman who assaults him! Like a piggy at Ninomiya level!!”*
Surprisingly, she was panicking.
No. If it continues like this, it’ll look like I forced a hug.
Is a guy who knows what’s going on supposed to hug tightly like that?
Especially in a gate? In a swimsuit?
…This is pure perversion!!
I’m a pig at Ninomiya level. No, I’m worse than that!
These thoughts were causing her to panic.
She was the objective Alice.
*“Yu-jin will be disappointed…”*
She was additionally afraid of being hated by Yu-jin.
What would that overly healthy Yu-jin think of her?
A sexual assaulter? A pervert?
…A pig crazy for sex?
It’s unfair! I’m not really that kind of pervert!
Of course, she was still hugging him tightly and subtly moving to stimulate him.
This was just instinctively, without her knowing.
She absolutely had no intention of sexually assaulting Yu-jin.
I’m not a pig like Ninomiya!
This illogical self-justification spiraled out of control.
*“……”*
*“……”*
As a result, a dreadful silence fell.
Yu-jin was worried about whether Alice would hate him.
Alice was anxious about what she’d do if Yu-jin hated her.
In the midst of it all, neither of them tried to pull away, which was quite a couple-like aspect.
However, that lasted only a moment.
Realizing that this was dangerous, Alice moved first.
Instead of pulling away, she held on tighter.
*“I don’t want to be seen as a pig exposing myself… I’m sorry, Yu-jin!”*
- *Gulp.*
*“W-Wait, is that solid? Is it a katana?*
Her act of pretending to know nothing was just a bonus.
She knew full well what had happened to Yu-jin and refused to be seen as a pervert.
She’d rather be the fool who never received sexual education at this age.
*“I’m like a baby right now. I’m totally clueless!”*
It’s only natural to hug someone without realizing it!
Such thoughts led to her poor acting.
Even with such obvious acting, Yu-jin took a deep breath.
*“Alice, could it be that you don’t know what’s happening right now? How can a person be this innocent?”*
It wasn’t that her act wasn’t working.
Yu-jin was a lovesick fool who believed everything his wives said.
Moreover, his awareness regarding women was sealed.
No matter how poorly she acted, it worked.
*“Well, Alice wouldn’t cling to me for any other reason. If she knew, it’d be perverse, right? It’d be like something out of a visual novel, a swimsuit-wearing pervert who triggers a sex trap.”*
There’s no way my wife would be like that; it must mean she truly doesn’t know!
Reflecting on why Yu-jin thought Alice was such an innocent girl before his regression, he felt a piece of that reason now.
*“So, um… this is….”*
*“Damn it. Should I give her sex education? Or should I hide it?”*
A brief period of contemplation followed.
Thank goodness he hadn’t been slapped yet…
Should he just pretend not to know and let it slide?
Sigh. His conscience hurt, and she’d definitely feel disillusioned when she found out the truth.
But should he really give her sex education?
*“Ah, this is called a penis. It’s what you use when you become the ‘Breeding Uncle’—like that?”*
Are you crazy? That’s sexual harassment.
*“…There’s something like that? All men live with a sword sheathed on their body.”*
After contemplating, Yu-jin took a middle ground.
Pretending to know while also pretending not to know, he decided to speak as indirectly as possible.
Even if Alice finds out later, he hoped she’d think, *“He didn’t deceive me, so I can forgive him.”*
*“A sword?”*
*“Of course, it’s not a real sword; it’s just a metaphor. There’s a saying, right? The body is like a sword. It’s similar to that.”*
*“I’ve never heard that proverb.”*
*“It’s a Japanese saying. Anyway, this sword loves women. Sometimes, it comes out just like that. It’s like giving treats to a cat.”*
*“……”*
His explanation came out in a hurried mess.
Even Yu-jin himself felt that it was complete nonsense.
Alice's head hung low.
*“I-I see…?”*
- *Sigh.*
*“I’m sorry, Yu-jin! I’m sorry!!”*
Alice was just embarrassed.
No, did she really not know that?
She wasn’t stupid. After all, even watching dramas, she’d seen things like penises and morning woods.
She knew at least that much before accessing *“Eyes.”*
After connecting, she learned a lot about what to do with that to feel good.
Maybe she knew a lot more than Yu-jin?
But Yu-jin?
He thought she knew nothing!
So, he was explaining everything kindly!
*“I appreciate that you trust me, but this kind of trust is making it harder for me!!”*
In her heart, a triangle of conflicting thoughts spun wildly.
She was assaulting Yu-jin while pretending to know nothing.
If Yu-jin found out, he’d definitely feel disillusioned.
*“But as long as I don’t get caught, it should be fine, right?”*
- *Swallow.*
*“He-he. A sword? C-Can I touch it~?”*
*“What are you talking about!!!?”*
Her conscience was pricking at her. Curiosity was triumphantly winning.
Since it had come to this, touching it should be okay…?
Just like those comics where they give sex education to completely clueless girls that often appeared in *“Eyes.”*
If she let Yu-jin touch her chest, it wouldn’t be a bad thing. It’d be a win-win.
After finishing such self-justifications, her delicate hand slowly moved downward.
- *Swipe.*
“Yu-jin and I are comrades of the Pine Needle Corps!”
“Wait!! Touching that is equivalent to a guy touching a girl’s chest!”
“I’ll let you touch me! For comrades of the Pine Needle Corps, this level of skinship is okay!”
Yu-jin’s eyes widened as Alice’s hand slid down his side.
If this continued, he would be seen as a pervert making Alice, who knew nothing, engage in strange play.
What should he do? Should he forcibly push her away?
No way. While it might be possible to push her away, if that swimsuit strap came loose in the process, it would be a disaster.
Besides, he didn’t want to use force against his precious wife.
Should he solve it through conversation?
She wouldn’t listen anyway. Instead, she’d say something like she’d let him touch her chest.
His Confucian persuasion wouldn’t work on a Western girl.
“What should I do? Just push her away and brace for an awkward relationship?”
Her increasingly intense gaze made him feel nervous.
Veins bulged in Yu-jin’s hand as he contemplated the impossible task of pushing away his wife.
And finally…
“…Nice timing! I love you, hypnosis!!”
The hypnosis, which had been waiting for its master to call, returned.
Yu-jin’s eyes gleamed with brilliant golden light.
“Alice, hold on!! Let me cool down my lust!!”
[The skill ‘Complete Hypnosis’ is activated!]
“…Huh?”
“Alice, wait! Let’s talk about this!”
“Um, um…?”
Thanks to this, Alice froze for a moment.
Seizing the opportunity, the virtuous young man escaped.
Regaining a semblance of peace in his lower half.
Yu-jin benefitted greatly from the hypnosis in many ways.
As he tangled with Alice, the returning hypnosis helped him escape his predicament.
“Got it? This kind of thing is only for those you love. From now on, don’t let anyone touch your chest so easily, okay?”
“Y-Yes…”
Having escaped, he added the hypnosis as a bonus.
It’s okay if she touches him, but he wouldn’t allow her to do that with any other man.
He would protect his Alice.
“So, what happened with Sia yesterday?”
“In the gate? We just practiced a couple of suppression techniques. And even that was half-hearted.”
He glossed over the kiss with Sia.
He claimed they just practiced suppression techniques. He asked her to trust him—without mentioning the other things.
Normally, this sloppy excuse wouldn’t work…
“Don’t lie. You did that with me too…”
“By the way, Alice, don’t you want to wipe off your sweat? You mentioned feeling embarrassed earlier. Aren’t you embarrassed?”
“…!!! Yu-Yu-jin, do I smell like sweat!!?”
Thanks to the hypnosis diverting her attention, he managed to excuse himself successfully.
He realized the importance of the hypnosis in that moment.
Afterward, nothing much happened.
Alice hurriedly wiped her sweat.
She claimed she’d clean his clothes because her sweat had gotten on them, then applied perfume and dried them with hot air.
He waited in nothing but his boxer shorts.
“It feels like Alice is looking at me strangely… Is it just my imagination?”
He sensed a curious gaze lingering on his underwear, but it was probably just his imagination.
He patiently waited and returned with Alice.
Together, they went to the academy.
Thus ended the eventful second day of practice.
“Yu-jin. There wasn’t anything weird with Alice, right? You didn’t kiss or anything?”
“Huh? Of course not.”
“I’m glad, but… Ugh. It’s embarrassing to command her. If I just leave it, I’ll be worried. This is driving me crazy.”
“What? I can’t hear you.”
“Forget it; just open your lips. We’re going to kiss.”
“…Y-Yes.”
Whether it was being called by Sia for a kiss or…
“My disciple. Nothing strange happened today….”
“…What did you do to smell like women’s perfume?”
“Eek.”
He had to endure the master’s questions, but at this point, it was nothing special anymore.
The real problem lay with the next day.
The much-anticipated third day of practice.
“Kyaaa!!! Saint, you’re so cool!!!”
“Winterer!! We’re on your side, so don’t hesitate to contact the Villain Human Rights Organization at any time…”
“Are you ready? Of course, DID, GAD, and MDD. No, you should suspect every patient. They can’t even do MMSE…”
“Hey. What’s going on? Do I really have to do that in front of them?”
Winterer arrived near the gate with many people gathered around him, chattering away.
Reporters, members of the Shin-Gyo faith, lawyers, doctors, and other non-awakened people.
These were the burdens we had to carry today.
“Ha… Are you really okay? Gates aren’t a joke. A blind stone could kill someone.”
“I’m fine!”
However, besides them, the senior awakeners were cheerfully laughing.
They seemed to feel no sense of crisis about entering non-awakened individuals into the gate.
Because…
“He’s here.”
“That’s right. Yu-jin. Even though I’m retired…”
“My skills are no less than when I was active. No one will get hurt.”
“……”
This practice was expected to be on a different level from what he experienced with his wives.
It was not just a simple gate conquest.
